Large Normal 212: Korts' Geriatrics - Game Over @1831

[Eddie Cane]

revelation: old people dont understand jokes.

[chamber]

I find your reaction to your wagon to be a little off.

[Pine]

This? Pretty unremarkable.

So nothing oddball at all to you of him confirming in thread after Korts had said all confirms are in (signifying he had not read that post) but then said his vote on KMD was not RVS (signifying that he had read KMD's posts to make a "serious" vote)?

Yeah maybe he's joking and all about it not being RVS ... still doesn't explain why he confirmed in thread. Given you confirmed via PM I'd have thought that would have resonated with you as strange since you didn't confirm after Day 1 started.

Also sammies are great as long as they are hot. No junk cold subs for this guy. What are your thoughts on chicken wings?

Honestly, I always confirm by PM. Most games require it, and I didn't think twice about just replying to my role PM and confirming that way. Korts didn't tell me "Hey I asked you to confirm in-thread," so I imagine he wouldn't have said so to Eddie.

For this to be a thing, there would have to be something nefarious about confirming by PM instead of the less-common (though requested) method. Sure, maybe he was active in the scum PT or something, but I wasn't and didn't get wrist-slapped for it. So it's NAI.

The kmd vote was probably a joke, but if he decides to make a big hairy deal about it I'll treat is differently then.

I like chicken wings, though I top out at medium temperature. You mentioned hot sammies, what are your feelings about Philly cheese steaks?

I find your reaction to your wagon to be a little off.

Considering his entire response consisted of...

revelation: old people dont understand jokes.

...which is essentially acknowledging it as a joke, I find YOUR response to be a bit off. And frankly, as that's your second bullshit push on someone in as many pages,

VOTE: Chamber

Not RVS. Not a joke.

[chamber]

I don't think I've pushed anyone yet? If you mean Old Man, my vote on him is entirely RVS. If you mean Magna, I still find it off that he immediately took CoolDog at face value. I still don't believe CoolDog. But I wouldn't call that a push. Asking probing questions is just my way of engaging with the game. I don't expect you to find value in every question I ask. I'm not asking them for your sake. I'm asking them for mine.

With that said, joking in response to his wagon, and then stating it was a joke is exactly what I thought was off? I don't understand how your post meaningfully engages with mine.

Perhaps more importantly though, this is the 2nd time someone has engaged with something I've directed at someone else. Please stop doing that.

[Pine]

That's not how Mafia works.

Your behavior is on trial too.

[insanity018]

I'm finding Pine's responses to be quite over-the-top (especially 40, 52)

What do you think is off about it?

I'm moody today, deal with it.

Of course it is. Assuming this is in response to my last line, let me clarify: Let them engage with it first. Then say whatever you want.

[chamber]

But also, you did just not respond to the majority of my post. What push were you talking about from the previous page? How is your point about his thing only being a joke a meaningful response?

[Pine]

I was referring to your push against Old Man and the new one on Eddie (which is separate from the old push on Eddie, which was also bullshit.)

It is very strange to be defending people in a game of Mafia on principle when I have no fucking idea if they're worth the trouble.

[Eddie Cane]

I'm not replying to #51 if that's what you're waiting for Chamber. If you just meant 57 in general, nvm.

[Pine]

He's right. You didn't actually ask a question.

Eddie, care to wagon Chamber with me?

There's cookies.

[chamber]

Something can be directed towards someone without it being a question.

Vote: Eddie Cane

[Kmd4390]

If Eddie's vote on me was a joke, I don't get it.

[petroleumjelly]

Looking like we should lynch Eddie Cane, Pine, and Axelrod.

I also don't believe CooLDoG's claim, but I'm not terribly interested in the topic right now.

[insanity018]

I'm not replying to #51 if that's what you're waiting for Chamber. If you just meant 57 in general, nvm.

Your posts have been this and making RVS jokes.

Do you have an opinion on anything that has happened? Eg, Chamber v Pine?

[Axelrod]

So, what we're saying is, the two guys who didn't confirm in the thread, but the mod. said were confirmed actually confirmed in the scum PT, yes?

I'm almost ready to actually believe that, just because both of them have also been off just posting in the thread. I agree with everything Magna is saying here:

This? Pretty unremarkable.

So nothing oddball at all to you of him confirming in thread after Korts had said all confirms are in (signifying he had not read that post) but then said his vote on KMD was not RVS (signifying that he had read KMD's posts to make a "serious" vote)?

Yeah maybe he's joking and all about it not being RVS ... still doesn't explain why he confirmed in thread. Given you confirmed via PM I'd have thought that would have resonated with you as strange since you didn't confirm after Day 1 started.

It's just strange.

And Pine's attempt to explain it by saying "oh, I was asking the mod. a question anyway so I just confirmed in the PM" was also strange. Especially since the question was apparently something like "How much are you, the mod. going to police bad behavior in the game?" Plus, he's being abrasive.

I mean, it's thin, but it's D1 with less than 100 posts. I could vote for Eddie, but given he's already at L-2, I don't think I'm going to just yet.

Unvote:

Vote: Pine

[Axelrod]

If I squint I can see that maybe Eddie is saying that his /confirm post was the joke.

The problem is the way he immediately followed it up with the "vote: kmd this is not a joke" post kind of dilutes and confuses the effect, if that's what he was going for. Also, it doesn't/didn't actually answer the question of "how did he confirm" either.

geriatric time waddupppppp

Lots of stuff. I'm waiting for a bit to see what some people do. If I haven't done stuff by like page 10 get back to me.

This post doesn't come from scum. Scum is worried about the PGO, not annoyed at it being misplayed.

[hitogoroshi]

I'm kinda torn here, I feel like the confirming outside of thread thing isn't a huge deal and I was just voting Eddie to make a wagon. And Axelrod 67 definitely feels a bit like he's squeezing blood from a stone and trying to taking this super far just to have A Reason For His Vote. But even though I don't care about that initial tell I really don't like Pine's reaction here. Seems weird that he first offered the "reason" of PMing to "ask a rules question" about rule 4 in advance of anyone actually posting anything rough, then immediately get in to spats and then later say "oh, I always confirm by PM".

Also I really don't like this one

This post doesn't come from scum. Scum is worried about the PGO, not annoyed at it being misplayed.

Because for someone still nominally undecided about Cooldog's PGO claim this sure seems to be tacitly assuming it's town
UNVOTE:
VOTE: Pine

[Firebringer]

So my plan for this game is to make geriatric games a living nightmare by applying my standard spamposting in a format that annoys everyone.

This will be my last post before I make extremely long mastina like wall posts.

Policy lynch me now or forever be annoyed.

You have been warned

[chamber]

Axelrod's post is pretty bad for reason's already stated. But, more so in my opinion, because he took it as an opportunity to vote for pine rather than the more obvious choice (even if only in some form of pseudo pressure).

Firebringer, I hope you're joking. Joining a game with the intent of making it a nightmare should be bannable.
